Purple Shirts

A few guys in my area use an umpiring shirt that is navy with a purple tone to it. They look uglier than Frankenstein, and do not match with the partner's navy blue shirt. Is this purple tone the result of too much sun or overuse, or was purple the trend way back in the day?

Likely the former

Bet they go lovely with their pink pants.

hanging in the car will fade them a little.

I've got an old Logo Athletic shirt that's a little on the purple side. Lots of games in the sun will do it.

Frankenstein was a good-looking doctor, just ask his Mommy. His monster was the ugly one. Igor wasn't much in the looks department, either.
